NEW DELHI: Seeking to bring together the best ideas for sustainable development, Germany - a frontrunner in sustainability research and a world leader in green technology — has announced a global competition to select 25 young 'Green Talents' who will get an opportunity to carry out research project of their choice in that country.
The idea is to face the global challenge of climate change by bringing out solutions for sustainable development through international cooperation where young scientists can play a key role.
Three young Indian scientists, including one from Varanasi, were selected for this in the fifth edition of the competition last year.
The competition for the year 2014 was announced recently by the German federal ministry of education and research.
The ministry has, accordingly, called for participation for young researchers for the sixth edition of the "Green Talents — International Forum for High Potentials in Sustainable Development".
The competition, under the patronage of minister Johanna Wanka, annually awards the 25 most outstanding minds worldwide. Hailing from various research disciplines, the winners are honoured for their original solutions for a more sustainable future.
Selected by a high-ranking jury of German experts, the "Green Talents" will be invited to a two-week science forum, touring Germany in the fall of 2014.
This visit will not only grant them unique access to some of the country's hot spots of sustainable development but also allows the participants to exchange ideas with peers and senior scientists.
In addition, the awardees will have the chance to present themselves to experts of their choice and discuss their work with them in individual appointments.
Detailed information on this competition can be accessed at the the Green Talents website: www.greentalents.de . The deadline for submissions of application is June 16.
According to the competition details, the winners will also receive a second invitation to Germany in 2015 for a fully funded research stay of up to three months.
At an inspiring location of their choice, the Green Talents will gain new experiences and advance their professional careers while establishing long-lasting partnerships. They will also get exclusive access to the "Green Talents network" of outstanding young researchers, renowned experts and top-class facilities from over 35 countries.
The competition is organized and conducted by the Project Management Agency of the German Aerospace Center (DLR).
Since its launch in 2009, the competition has become part of the German ministry's framework programme on "Research on Sustainable Development", which draws the attention of science, business and politics in Germany to these issues.
